Reefer Madness (Musical Comedy / Completed)

Inspired by the notorious 1936 anti-marijuana propaganda film, Showtime's first movie musical REEFER MADNESS is a tongue-in-cheek raucous musical comedy about clean-cut kids who fall into a twisted, hilarious downward spiral of reefer, sex and mayhem.

One of the most complicated musicals filmed for television, the movie contains sixteen musical sequences and several complex large-scale dance numbers. And every member of the cast was proud to display their real singing voice.

This screen version of the award-winning stage musical stars Kristen Bell (VERONICA MARS), Christian Campbell, Neve Campbell (SCREAM, WILD THINGS), Tony Award-winner Alan Cumming (CABARET), Ana Gasteyer, John Kassir, Amy Spanger, Robert Torti and Steven Weber (WINGS). Garnering strong critical acclaim for its off-Broadway run, the original Los Angeles production of REEFER MADNESS also took theatergoers by storm, sweeping the theatrical awards from the various L.A. critics groups and becoming one of the longest-running shows in Los Angeles history. The film REEFER MADNESS reunites the stage version's creative team. Directed by Andy Fickman from the screenplay by Kevin Murphy & Dan Studney based on their musical stage play, the three men also serve as the film's executive producers.
